1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate pathological findings in patients positive for human papillomavirus (HPV)-31. Material and Methods: This retrospective study included patients evaluated in a tertiary colposcopy clinic. The 3,546 patients tested for high-risk HPV were evaluated from September 2019 to December 2023. The study comprised 130 (3.7%) patients who tested positive for HPV-31. Isolated HPV-31 positivity indicated the presence of HPV-31 alone. Combined positivity indicated coexistence with other high-risk HPV types. If the following lesions were positive, high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs), adenocarcinoma Results: The mean age was 44.4±9.24 years. Isolated HPV-31 positivity was present in 69 (53.1%) patients. The final pathologic result was ≥HSIL in 9 (6.9%) patients, with only 1 (0.8%) patient had squamous cell cervical cancer. No significant association was observed between HPV-31 positivity type (isolated or combined) and ≥HSIL (respectively, 7.2% vs. 6.6%; p=0.578). Conclusion: Approximately 7% of women positive for HPV-31 have HSIL and higher lesions. The isolated or combined HPV-31 positivity does not affect the existence of HSIL or higher lesions.
